3 John 5-10
New King James Version
Gaius Commended for Generosity
5 Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the brethren [a]and for strangers, 6 who have borne witness of your love before the church. If you send them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well, 7 because they went forth for His name’s sake, (A)taking nothing from the Gentiles. 8 We therefore ought to (B)receive[b] such, that we may become fellow workers for the truth.
Diotrephes and Demetrius
9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence among them, does not receive us. 10 Therefore, if I come, I will call to mind his deeds which he does, (C)prating[c] against us with malicious words. And not content with that, he himself does not receive the brethren, and forbids those who wish to, putting them out of the church.

3 John 5-10
New International Version
5 Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers and sisters,[a](A) even though they are strangers to you.(B) 6 They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way(C) in a manner that honors(D) God. 7 It was for the sake of the Name(E) that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans.(F) 8 We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.
9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. 10 So when I come,(G) I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he even refuses to welcome other believers.(H) He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church.(I)

Philippians 4:14-19
New King James Version
14 Nevertheless you have done well that (A)you shared in my distress. 15 Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, (B)no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. 16 For even in Thessalonica you sent aid once and again for my necessities. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek (C)the fruit that abounds to your account. 18 Indeed I [a]have all and abound. I am full, having received from (D)Epaphroditus the things sent from you, (E)a sweet-smelling aroma, (F)an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. 19 And my God (G)shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus(H) the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant(I) offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19 And my God will meet all your needs(J) according to the riches of his glory(K) in Christ Jesus.
